Comparative chloroplast genome analyses of Avena: insights into evolutionary dynamics and phylogeny

Abstract Background Oat (Avena sativa L.) is a recognized health-food, and the contributions of its different candidate A-genome progenitor species remain inconclusive. Here, we report chloroplast genome sequences of eleven Avena species, to examine the plastome evolutionary dynamics and analyze phy...
